Just got home, thanks evo looks good.

Tell me, am I the right path or going backwards?

 

[Disco08]

Yeah you can't beat finding someone like that. I can't wait to have a big enough cavalry to start smashing some 400+ villages.

Don't spend anymore on embassy's dude,they do nothing for you.

Stick to resources from now on until you have at least 1 of each up to level 10 and have your sawmill bakery brickyard.

maybe he wants to start his own alliance.

 

[evo]

I ve attacked shu8man about 10 times duckman--he's never put out once the tight bastard!!

 

[Disco08]

He looks inactive, but he must have built enough crannies to cover his warehouse before he left. How selfish. ;D

 

[Harry]

hey evo how much extra resources is the oasis giving u?

 

[evo]

An extra 250 iron and 250 crops/hour.It's bloody worth it.

 

[Disco08]

I'll bet there's some massive fights over the 50% croppers later in the game when people have 15 croppers with high level fields.

 

[evo]

yeh for sure

that 15 dcropper u got duckman has access to 75%--u make that your capital as well and could be phenominal output.

 

[Harry]

what r u defending it with?

 

[evo]

what r u defending it with?

80 praets

It's good i reckon--put all your praets on the oasis--if someone attacks your village the oasis is so close can bring back the praets in time to greet them.

Ther bonus they are giving you more than pays their keep.

 

[Disco08]

Only problem is praets get chewed by cavalry. I've just started messaging a few teut confeds near me to see if they want to trade praets for spearmen. About half/half is a great mix.

 

[evo]

getting technical eh.

Legionaires are ok against calvary?

the problem with that is u can't send them as re-inforcements.

with the oasis, to take one over do you just need to kill the defending troops and send a hero lvl 10 over?

 

[Disco08]

Yeah they're good mate, just not as good as spears. Phalanxes are the best though I reckon. Every time I run the calculator on an attack against them they always seem to take out far more than I expect.

 

[S.D.]

loving your farming work of late S.D--thats the way it's done.

Cheers. God I love my horses. I lost a few the other day and felt like Tony Soprano with Pie-O-My.I've got 38 atm and building. I send them out in groups of at least 5 and they normally clean out the farms in 1 swoop. My problem is trying to find a lightly defended village to get my hero points up.

If you want to get your hero points up you can attack oasis--they have small booty too.

 

[Disco08]

If you raid oasis, your hero always survives because it's not a fight to the death. Is that right?

Just got a trade too. 100 praets for 110 spears. Need that once more and I'm going to start going after some of the bigger villages with EC's.

 

[S.D.]

Yeah, I attacked an oasis today, owned by a guy in DK-G. He sent me a message saying while not confererates, we both had common ones. I checked them out and turns out Braddles and Thommo are now with them. FKoF has realy gone down the gurgler. Anyway, I agreed to not raid him again (pity, it was quite lucrative,and a 15-cropper - damn confderates). Guess I'll have to find another one
